Problem with 1y/o Titan Viper system freezing every 15 minutes or so

Depending on how many sticks of ram you've got have you tried them one at a time to rule out the ram, i know it's probably unlikely but during video and game play they're also put under heavy load.
 
Under windows logs, system.

There's nothing here that coincides with the time of stutters. Just services stopping and starting.

I will try this tonight if nothing else comes up. Memtest came up clean and I've had no bluescreens or weird data issues. Takes a long time to troubleshoot because the stutters are random, taking a break for a while, but please keep the suggestions coming.
 
The systems come with a 1yr warranty, so depending on how accurate you are with your topic title, you may be able to post in the OcUK CS forum for warranty assistance.
 
Quick update to let you know that the problem appears to be resolved. The culprit was, of all things, the hard drive. Disabled it and installed Windows on an old 120gb drive I had in the PC and (touch wood) no stutters. I'll get a replacement soon and hopefully that's the end of that.

Thank you very much everyone for your help and suggestions. Very much appreciated. :)
 
Decided to treat myself to an SSD and a new 1tb. I'll pick up a USB caddy for the old drives.

Also I've just played a nice couple of hours of Diablo 3. Far less frustrating to get killed by stupidity, as opposed than recovering from a stutter to find yourself gibbed with 50 zombies eating your entrails. :D
